Art can portray the world's most complex subjects: the passion of love, the horrors of war, and the despair of fruit waiting to be eaten. Hold a mirror to nature with today’s Groupon: for $4, you get two tickets to Make It! The Handmade Revolution at the Alberta Aviation Museum (up to a $10 value). Kids age 12 and younger are admitted for free. This Groupon includes admission for all four days of the event, which runs November 17–20.
Make It! The Handmade Revolution, a craft fair started by a brother-sister duo, showcases the work of more than 100 Canadian artisans and designers at an event Merge Magazine described as "the craft sale for the next generation." Visitors can trek to A La Carte's booth to stock up on handmade cards, or meander over to Bubblegum Sass's display and purchase crocheted scarves that double as hammocks for teddy bears. Unique Clay Art rounds out living room galleries with fired bowls and masks, and a silent auction supports the efforts of The Kidney Foundation of Canada. Festival visitors can tune their ears to live music such as the acoustic tunes of Harry Wojak. Tasty, homemade creations from vendors such as Totally Nuts sate hunger with snacks that are as sweet and savoury as a love poem written in worcestershire sauce.
Though Make It! The Handmade Revolution sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.

The Groupon Guide to: Very Special Episodes
Though critics agree that all television is special, once every few years a popular television program will use its reach to educate an audience on a serious issue. Here's a guide to crafting your own very special episode:
• Choose a serious issue to be discussed. If you're not sure if your issue is serious enough, try bringing it up at Thanksgiving. If your chosen topic is suitable, it will ruin everything.
• Make sure to swap your usual incidental music with much sadder music. This will let the audience know that they should cry instead of laugh and eat one piece of popcorn at a time respectfully, instead of shoveling it in via carefree handfuls.
• If your show features a Screech, he should sit this one out entirely.
• At the end of the episode, actors must reveal their own name directly into the camera. This way, viewers know that the issue being discussed is very real, even though Carl Winslow is just a 19-year-old gymnast in a Carl Winslow suit.
